Liberal AssKicker asked: When Bush tried to fix the banking problem, he sought (and received) help from dozens of other countries.
Did our allies overseas simply like Bush better?
Or is it because Obama has more of a dictatorial attitude toward policy?

Wage Peace asked: Foreclosures are still on the rise but the banking industry has shown stability (according to the news). Shouldn’t the banks be forced to work with the current home mortgage payees instead of creating another empty home and homeless family?
Foreclosures are 11% in Las Vegas and they are mostly average Americans.
I do not agree that banks were forced into giving out loans to people who could not afford it. BofA is known for their picky mortgage banking.

knight of the Kings Kingdom asked:
Sure the Republicans deregulated, but they didn’t deregulate banking?
Is Obama just showing off his sense of humour or is he looking to fool the stupid ignorant people?

Critical_rationalist asked: No banking CEOs have been forced out.
The banks weren’t required to submit plans for solvency.
And before you blame Bush for the bank bailout, the dems and Obama backed it, and Obama is implementing it!

bk asked:
I am just curious to know, who gives so much money for campaigning? According to Sheila Krumholz, the executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics, the presidential candidates alone have already raised more than $1.5 billion since the election cycle started in January 2007. Is that a joke? I know that to show ads on TV, they need some money but 1.5 BILLION is way too much.
